#4601 closed defect (fixed)

Journal can be called from the Control Panel

Reported by: godiard Owned by:
Priority: Urgent Milestone: 0.100.0
Component: Sugar Version: Git as of bugdate
Severity: Unspecified Keywords: AU1C
Cc: Distribution/OS: Unspecified
Bug Status: New

Description

If the user is in the Control Panel, and press F5, the Journal is displayed, later, can change to the Home view, but the view does not reply, no palettes, the buttons do nothing, and so.
At times, can go back to the Control Panel using Alt-Tab,
but is very confusing to the user.

  • Keywords AU1C added; AU1B removed

We need to rethink the entire CP section for 1C (I would argue it should be a collection of apps, not a set of modal widgets)

Do we have a short-term strategy for fixing this? Disabling the view buttons when the CP section is open?

comment:4 Changed 10 years ago by godiard

Dextrose had a patch doing something like that. Need cleanup and think about other cases,
like Show Source, or the ObjectChooser windows. Also check if all the hot keys are blocked, disabling by example, taking screenshots in the control panel.
The patch is attached.

This is the obvious patch and maybe the best we can do in the short term, but ideally we should make the control panel and view source widgets behave like activities. For perhaps for 102?
